Build a Bear for our new brother

I have picked out a present for Joshua to give Hud and Han when we get home from China. A good friend from work gave me the idea to have them build a bear to give him when he gets home. This is the first toy we've gotten him, and hopefully it will be pretty special since it was made by his brother and sister.



Hud was pretty insistent that he needed to have a music sound for the bear.


Here they're kissing the heart and making a wish before they put it in the bear.
Full throttle, both feet on the petal.... the kids help stuff the bear.

Brushing and bathing him.

Oh, all the options.... the clothes cost more than I spend on the kids' outfits!!

In the end, we chose a panda bear because of it's significance to China. We also got him a USA Olympic team shirt and some pants. We've decided that instead of the athletes, we'll be the ones bringing home the real gold this summer!!
